The Social Studies and Language Arts classrooms are combining to help students write a research paper that will correctly follow MLA format.
Students will be choosing a famous person or historical event that they are interested in. Students will then use this general topic to create an essential question -- meaning, what does the student really want to know? Research should be interesting to the student, not something to be dreaded.
This paper will also be using MLA in-text citations and works cited page. Very impressive!
Timeline for the Social Studies/Language Arts Research Paper* The following rubric will be used by the students and by me to assess their final research paper.
